TORC2 inhibition may boost DNA-damaging chemotherapy
Comment on: Selvarajah J, Elia A, Carroll VA, Moumen A. DNA damage-induced S and G2/M cell cycle arrest requires mTORC2-dependent regulation of Chk1. Oncotarget. 2015; 6:427-40.
متن کاملDNA Damaging Drugs
DNA damaging drugs interfere with transcription and reduplication. Affected cells respond with cell cycle arrest or programmed cell death. DNA damaging drugs are mutagenic, teratogenic, and carcinogenic. Adverse effects are exerted on rapidly proliferating cells (skin—hair loss, gastrointestinal tract—nausea and vomiting, bone marrow—anemia causing fatigue/leukopenia causing infections/thromboc...
متن کاملTargeting autophagy augments in vitro and in vivo antimyeloma activity of DNA-damaging chemotherapy.
PURPOSE Although autophagy occurs in most tumor cells following DNA damage, it is still a mystery how this DNA-damaging event turns on the autophagy machinery in multiple myeloma (MM) and how the functional status of autophagy impacts on its susceptibility to death in response to DNA-damaging chemotherapy. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We investigate the effects of DNA damage on autophagy in MM cells a...
متن کاملInsulin modulates gluconeogenesis by inhibition of the coactivator TORC2.
During feeding, increases in circulating pancreatic insulin inhibit hepatic glucose output through the activation of the Ser/Thr kinase AKT and subsequent phosphorylation of the forkhead transcription factor FOXO1 (refs 1-3). Under fasting conditions, FOXO1 increases gluconeogenic gene expression in concert with the cAMP responsive coactivator TORC2 (refs 4-8). In response to pancreatic glucago...
متن کاملVisual Tuning May Boost African Cichlid Diversity
African cichlid fish form new species faster than any other vertebrates, with hundreds of species evolving within the last 2 million years in Lake Malawi and within the last 120,000 years in Lake Victoria. This rapid speciation makes cichlids good models for elucidating the genetic mechanisms behind biodiversity. Vision may play a key role in cichlid evolution, adapting them to forage for new f...
